Eric Van Lustbader at the Los Angeles Festival of Books 2013

As most of you know I am an avid reader and book collector and on top of that I love getting autographs from my favorite authors. Eric Van Lustbader being one of the authors I have not seen in quite a few years, hence I was thrilled that he was not only going to be at the Los Angeles Festival of Books, but he would also sign the books. Needless to say I had quite a few of his books that were not signed. He averages two books a year; hence I had about ten to twelve books that were just waiting to be signed by him.

Eric Van Lustbader took over the Bourne Franchise with the passing of the Creator of Jason Bourne none other than the Iconic Robert Ludlum. Lustbader is now synonymous with the Jason Bourne Character not only in the books but in the Movies as well. Ironically some people do not even know that Robert Ludlum created the Bourne Series. I was standing in line waiting for my turn, there were three other authors signing, hence we were in close proximity to the people in the other line and I overheard one person asking who Eric van Lustbader was. As I was listening to the answer it made me smile: “…he is the one who wrote the Bourne Series….” Was the answerJ

He was very gracious as always, not only signing but allowing taking pictures of him and with him. He is truly someone who cares about his fans. If you have not read anything by him you are doing yourself a disservice.  There are so many good books by him:  The Nicholas Lenear Series i.e.: The Ninja, the Miko…. And of course many others

I have also posted some other pictures of this great event which was held at the USC Campus Downtown Los Angeles. If you have never been to this campus you must put it on your must visit destinations.

I have written a few Blog posts about this earlier so in case you missed it I am providing a few of the links here http://actvra.in/V2S  ,   http://actvra.in/STd  ,  http://actvra.in/9g6

The Festival of Books a fun event every year check out the pictures of this yearJ

Last weekend we were at the festival of books. As most of you who know me or read my blog posts over the years know, that I am an avid Reader and Collect Books and try to get the authors to sign them. Keep in mind this might become a series of postJ (Too many subjects to cover in one blog post)

So with that said let me cover Security. This event was shortly after the Boston Marathon Terrorist act. The good news was I never felt as secure as this event in a long time.

First the University of Southern California (USC) is a closed campus. Once you come on the campus there is security everywhere. This year was no exceptions outside of the fact that it was visibly stronger. Campus Police augmented by Los Angeles Police was clearly visible. Police on Bicycles, Police on Segways, Police of Foot, Police in Patrol vehicles, Police on Horses.

Well needless to say there were no incidents to report accepted that Security was super high and no incidents occurred.

Remembering The Streets in Downtown Los Angeles

While in Downtown Los Angeles on Sunday, someone asked me for directions...

I remembered this....

From Main we

Spring to

Broadway,

then over the Hill to

Olive.  

OH!

Wouldn’t it be Grand

if we could Hope to pick a Flower at Figueroa.

Add in a few streets to the east and you have the main arteries running in order from Main to the Harbor/Pasadena(110) Freeway in Downtown Los Angeles.
